Would transportation cost include salary and a per mile charge?
If you are counting the per mile charge which included only the use of the vehicle you could also count the salary. Another way you could do it is if you have a vehicle and half of the time the vehicle is used to carry individuals for evaluations or treatment and the other half of the time the vehicle is used to carry persons to TDJC, for example, and you can document this overall arrangement, then you can count half of the cost of the vehicle and would not have to keep a mileage log. However, you decide to do this, be sure you explain how you did it and justify it on a reasonable basis. Also, on salaries, jail personnel, if they average twice a month transporting of persons for medical care, for example, you can count only a proportion of their salary as a health care transportation expense. You could not count the entire amount.
